Configuring MAC address learning for an S-channel You can manually disable the MAC address learning function for an S-channel by performing this task. To disable MAC address learning for an S-channel: Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Enter S-channel interface view. Command system-view interface s-channel interface-number:channel-id 3. Disable MAC address learning for the S-channel. evb mac-learning forbidden Remarks N/A N/A By default, the MAC address learning function is enabled for an S-channel. IMPORTANT: • For an S-channel with RR mode disabled, do not disable its MAC address learning function. Otherwise, the bridge might fail to forward traffic for VMs on the EVB station. • After you disable the MAC address learning function for an S-channel, the bridge will discard packets with an unknown source MAC address. Configuring a VSI Creating a VSI A VSI is created on an S-channel interface through this task. VSIs are typically created by a VSI manager. You can also create a VSI or modify its Pre-Associate and Associate properties. A VSI is a subinterface of an S-channel interface on an EVB bridge. Removing an S-channel also removes all its VSIs. 7

For an S-channel with RR mode
disabled, do not disable its

Configuring a VSI
Creating a VSI
A VSI is created on an S-channel interface through this task.
VSIs are typically created by a VSI manager. You can also create a VSI or modify its Pre-Associate and
Associate properties.
A VSI is a subinterface of an S-channel interface on an EVB bridge. Removing an S-channel also removes
all its VSIs.
